Syntheses of tetrahydro-beta-carbolines via a tandem hydroformylation-Pictet-Spengler reaction. Scope and limitations.
A novel one-pot synthesis of tetrahydro-beta-carboline systems via tandem hydroformylation-Pictet-Spengler reaction starting from olefins and aryl ethylamines is described. This tandem procedure allows fast and convenient synthesis of various substituted tetrahydro-beta-carbolines.
